This review is from: Essential Volkswagen Karmann Ghia (Paperback)
Good books on Ghias are difficult to come by - This is definately the best I've seen or thumbed through. Details the Coupe's and Cabriolets seperately and covers all the major changes to details through the cars production, backed up with some excellent photographs. Also covers type 3 Ghias.
4.0 out of 5 stars
